Trevor Faulkner · Answer 1

Current cash balance + cash receipts - cash disbursements = $21,600 + $246,000 - $257,000 = $10,400 cash balance at the end of the month.

Minimum cash balance - cash balance at the end of the month = $20,800 - $10,400 = $10,400 difference.

$10,400 needs to be borrowed.
